Brian Crighton and Spondon Engineering have been developing the new NRV 588 race bikes for well over a year now, as these race bikes have progressed we have had a team working alongside them to put into production a road legal NRV 588. These bikes will be put into production late 2008 early 2009, with first bikes expected to be ready spring summer 2009.

Initially we will doing a limited edition of 200 bikes, these will all be hand built in our new factory at Donington Park.
